I feel like I could have known this is a Friedemann Friese game..

I love Bosh!. It has some great dishes for a dinner party, but also some simple things like Hummus and Baba Ganoush.

Yes! I think these also fall in the "can be explained within 1 minute" category

I think there's an open issue for this on Github

Correct! Definitely in the first, not sure about the second
When I opened [this review](https://bumblingthroughdungeons.com/hundreds-of-horses-board-game-review/) for a game called Hundreds of Horses, I expected to have a good laugh about an awful game. The first two sentences: It’s like a less-complicated Dixit. And all horses. However, the author is actually fairly positive! It's clearly not a "hobby game" and not meant for hobby gamers, but it works and can be fun. What other games fall into this category? I'll nominate: - **Happy Salmon**. What's more fun than high fiving and running around a table? - **Spot It**: Reverse spot the differences. Pure reflex game that can be explained in ten seconds - Time's Up!: Describe something, describe it in one word, and charades. Practically always a hit

These are my go to games for larger groups:
- Codenames: A modern classic! Works best with 6 or 8 people.
- Decrypto: For a more gamey version of Codenames.
- Wavelength: Fun party game that spikes interesting conversations
- Concept: Don't play to win, just play to have fun guessing

The link doesn't work for me, is it the same as everynoise.com?
I've been mostly using Spotify and some Dutch review sites. I still have a Last.fm account but don't use it much anymore, Spotify has mostly replaced it.

Yeah, this article sounds like it's written by someone trying to justify his purchase
This genre seems to be fairly popular, and I can see why. Instead of just building a deck for the sake of building it (like in **Dominion**), adding a racing element makes the game more interactive, tense, and tangible. I've only played a few, and I'm interested in how **Heat** compares to for example. I really enjoy **Clank!** and **The Quest for El Dorado**. I'd say Quest is the better game. It's cleaner, has fewer rules, and more variety in terms of maps. However, Clank! can be more *fun*. All the weird cards, the fights, drawing from the Dragon bag, and trying to get out alive make it a more lively (but also more random) game.

I tend to like competitive games, but I like my coop games to:
- be difficult, or have a difficult mode. To me, there's no fun in winning on the first try
- to foster table talk OR a different kind of fun player interaction. That's why The Lost Expedition didn't click for me, it felt like just throwing some cards on the table.
That said, I enjoy Pandemic (a classic), Hanabi, Just One, and Magic Maze. I haven't really tried heavier ones but I'd love to play Spirit Island some day.
And for very young kids, My First Orchard is great!

My Spanish isn't great, but looks like a nice overview! I haven't heard of Virus!, I'm guessing it's a Spanish game?

Anything with tiles works well, like Hive, Hanabi Deluxe, or Carcassonne. Dice games also work well, such as Pickomino. And there's Crokinole, if your table can fit it

That's a good rule! I try to maintain "1 game in, 1 game out"

I have not, but I've heard good things. Probably too expensive for what it is for me, though.

Yes, Hasbro had a crowdfunding campaign but it was cancelled
